Williams is the seventh of the Patriots’ known 30 visits.

The New England Patriots keep adding to their list of pre-draft visits. The latest reported prospect to visit Gillette Stadium is Washington State wide receiver Kyle Williams, who was in town earlier this week per a report from FOX Sports’ Jordan Schultz.

Williams, 22, started his college career at UNLV, where he appeared in 25 games and caught 117 passes for 1,568 yards and 9 touchdowns. He transferred to Washington State ahead of the 2023 season, and picked up right where he left off.

He had a 61-842-6 campaign in...

Stevens spent two season with the Patriots.

Matt Stevens, a former NFL defensive back and special teamer who spent two seasons with the New England Patriots, has passed away. According to his family, he died on March 20 at the age of 51.

Born in Northville, MI, on June 14, 1973, Stevens attended Chapel Hill High School before joining Appalachian State in 1991. A two-time All-American at safety, he entered the NFL as a third-round draft selection by the Buffalo Bills in 1996.

Stevens spent only one season with the Bills, but still ended up managing an eight-year career that...

The Patriots grab some playmakers and offensive linemen in this new mock draft.

Another week has passed, and more free agents have been signed across the NFL. And while that might make the top of the draft a little bit more clear, there really is no telling what will happen within the first few selections.

Set to pick at No. 4 overall, the New England Patriots will keep a close eye on the first three picks currently held by the Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns and New York Jets. What they will do will dictate the Patriots’ approach — something we...

New England agreed to a three-year deal with Diggs in free agency.

Mike Vrabel knew the importance of building the supporting cast around New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye. So, he turned to free agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who has caught the coach’s eye in the past.

As the Patriots are expected to officially announce the signing of Diggs on Friday, Vrabel made his first comments on the addition Thursday on Chris Long’s The Green Light podcast.

“Just trying to make sure we’re supporting Drake and supporting the football team,” Vrabel explained. “And again, this is a highly competitive,...

The Patriots haven’t officially announced the signing of Stefon Diggs, but head coach Mike Vrabel all but confirmed the move himself.

During an episode of “Green Light with Chris Long” released Thursday afternoon, Vrabel weighed in on the Diggs signing and other offseason happenings in Foxboro, Mass. The veteran head coach spoke glowingly about what Diggs would bring to the room.

“Yeah, just trying to make sure we’re supporting Drake and supporting the football team,” Vrabel told Long. “This is a highly competitive, confident receiver that’s produced throughout his career. And multiple ways. Play style, he’s got a play strength...

Chances are Patriots fans would feel pretty good if New England addresses its three biggest needs with its four top-80 selections in the 2025 NFL Draft. Chances are they’d feel even better if one of those players included blue-chip prospect Travis Hunter.

Well, that’s exactly what ESPN NFL draft expert Matt Miller predicted in a seven-round mock draft released Thursday. Miller projected each of New England’s nine draft selections, adding a pair of wide receivers and second-round offensive tackle with high upside.

Check out Miller’s picks, including a brief synopsis for those who were drafted in the first three rounds,...

Patriots fans have a better idea of who will be available when New England picks at No. 4 in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Multiple reports indicated that the Tennessee Titans would select Cam Ward with the No. 1 pick. It’s up in the air regarding what the Cleveland Browns do at No. 2, and their pick would dictate the New York Giants’ selection at No. 3.

When discussing the Patriots’ reported signing of Stefon Diggs, ESPN’s Matt Miller noted the “dream scenario” for Mike Vrabel if Abdul Carter slid down the draft to No. 4. Adam Schefter shook his head...

Membou is one of the best offensive tackle prospects in this year’s draft.

As the New England Patriots have used the early portion of the offseason to upgrade their roster, a hole continues to remain at the left tackle position. New England has been on the hunt for a long term answer on what is now Drake Maye’s blindside for multiple seasons and perhaps could find it atop this year’s draft.

Let’s therefore take a closer look at Armand Membou to find out what he would bring to the table.

Hard facts

Name: Armand Membou

Position: Offensive tackle

School:...

The Patriots’ quarterback was recently asked about his preference in the first round.

One of the New England Patriots’ primary goals this offseason is improving the supporting cast around second-year quarterback Drake Maye. One big piece of the puzzle will be the team’s first-round selection in this year’s draft: at No. 4 overall, the Patriots are in prime position to add some bluechip talent or further bolster their capital through a trade.

What they will do remains to be seen, but it is a decision Maye will not be involved in. The man himself, though, would want his team to...

Will Campbell is sick and tired of hearing about his arm length.

It’s been almost the only thing discussed about one of the best offensive lineman prospects in next month’s NFL draft — Campbell could get selected as high as fourth overall to the New England Patriots.

Campbell’s arm length yet again was a major topic Wednesday at LSU’s pro day. The tape measure was brought out once more and Campbell’s arms came in at 33 inches, which was a big positive for the 21-year-old after they were measured at 32 5/8 inches at last month’s NFL Scouting Combine.

But...

DK Metcalf had zero interest in joining the New England Patriots this offseason.

Instead, the two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver joined the Pittsburgh Steelers via a trade from the Seattle Seahawks. Metcalf claimed a landing spot with desirable weather conditions and a playoff environment were the two main priorities, although Pittsburgh isn’t a guarantee to provide Metcalf either of those. The Steelers don’t have a clear-cut starting quarterback yet, the city’s weather isn’t anything to write home about, and the team just collapsed in the AFC wild-card game last season against the Baltimore Ravens.

So… should Metcalf have given Foxborough...

The Patriots signed Bradbury to a two-year, $9.5 million contract in free agency.

The New England Patriots did not waste any time after releasing longtime starting center and team captain David Andrews. Just five days later, they signed a player who was immediately projected to fill his shoes: Garrett Bradbury, himself a six-year starter with the Minnesota Vikings, was added on a two-year, $9.5 million contract.

As a look at the details of that deal as first reported by Ben Volin of the Boston Globe and further dissected by salary cap expert Miguel Benzan shows, the initial projection still appears...
